Promises

Chapter Eighteen

Ricky’s P.O.V.:

            “I’m sorry I wasn’t made for you…” I whispered as we laid in bed.

            Megan turned around and hugged me.    

            “Don’t ever say that Ricky… You have proven yourself again and again that you are a capable husband and a worthy father. I’m sure that we can pull through this…” she whispered back.

            “I love you…” I said but she didn’t say anything and I saw her biting her lip…

            That hesitation… again… I sensed it from her when I too saw Travis crying and I immediately tried to enter Megan’s mind but she blocked me out.. I haven’t asked her why yet… I guess I’m afraid of her answer…

            “Me too…” she said softly as she kissed my cheek and closed her eyes as she snuggled closer to me..

            I hugged my wife tightly… I can’t lose her… I’ve never fallen this hard for another woman before… Not even for my ex soul mate…

            I just can’t do this…

Megan’s P.O.V. :

            I don’t know why I couldn’t bring myself to say ‘I love you too’ to Ricky. I mean back then when Travis wasn’t in our lives, it felt so easy to do so. But when I saw Travis begging and crying for me to come back, my heart is now messing with my head.

            I know Travis did wrong in rejecting me but does he deserve a second chance? Wait why am I even considering taking him back? He did me wrong right?

            Now here I am, at home alone. Ricky has to work today while I’m just lazing around when my iPhone beeped with a Whatsapp.

            Travis: hey… travis here…

            My eyes widened at that and I quickly replied him.

            Megan: how did you get my no?

            Travis: the court gave it to me when i asked them after you left. they gave me permission to win you back so they released your particulars to me…

            Megan: oh… ok… what do you want messaging me for?

*~*

Travis’s P.O.V.:

            I was so nervous.

            Will she reply me or not?

            What will her reply be?

            So far, so good. She hasn’t shown me any negative signs so I decided to go ahead with my next answer.

            Travis: erm… i wanted to ask you… will you go out on a date with me tomorrow night?

            Megan: i don’t know travis… i know this is a court order but i’m still ricky’s wife… i can’t just up and go on a date with you.

            I almost smashed my phone against the wall when I saw that bastard’s name. How dare he happily refuse to let Megan and my pups come back to me!
